Norway

                     

PRELIMINARY ROUND

The capital of Norway, and the largest city in Norway, with a little more than 1 million inhabitants, consists of a beautiful mixture of nature and urban city life. Oslo is the cultural, scientific, economic, and governmental centre of Norway.

The city is surrounded by the Marka Forest and the Oslo Fjord, both connected by several waterways. Oslo’s approach to conserving its natural areas and restoring its waterway network is just one of the many reasons why it won the European Green Capital Award for 2019.

Oslo will once again form the perfect setting for a championship, and the city is looking forward to welcoming the teams that will play in Norway.
